2026 Summer Ocean Swim

I see patients living with Cancer everyday at work. Some are in the midst of difficult treatment whilst others are in remission. Everyone of them has a story to tell and I am often blown away by their positivity and tenacity. I guess when faced with a significant challenge we either fade away or get busy facing up to the challenge that lies ahead. We all know someone living with Cancer.
This year, in honour of my countless brave and inspiring patients, I am raising valuable funds that go towards innovation in the prevention, care, and control of cancer with Can Too.
I have been training to complete in a 2km open water Ocean Race under the superb coaching of the Can Too crew. Thinking of my patients with Cancer is helping me attack this goal with positivity and tenacity - even when the journey ahead seems terrifying!
It would be fantastic if you could sponsor me!

I'm supporting cancer research and the health of people in Australia 

Roughly 1 in 2 of us will receive a cancer diagnosis in our lifetime. This is a statistic that we need to change.
